A native from Trinidad, Kamini Kurvink learned to cook at only 10 years of age. She was cooking for her parents and her eight siblings. This love for baking and cooking gave her all the experience and knowledge she has today to invent and re-invent her homeland dishes, making this more personalized.
At the age of 26, Kamini relocated to Aruba where she started working at a fast food chain. Starting out as a regular employee, Kaminiās hard work and love for her craft got her all the way up to the position of manager.
After leaving her job at the fast food chain, she opened a breakfast and lunch snackette that was open 6 days every week for about 10 months. Eventually, Kamini got to the current location and this is how today we have one of the restaurants that bring our visitors true Aruban cuisine, Kaminiās Kitchen.

The main dish Kaminiās Kitchen recommends is the Roti with Curry. Curry is usually Indian and often comes in a prepackaged way.

In the case that you do want it spicy, Kaminiās has their own homemade hot sauce and one drop is more than enough!
Another dish that Kaminiās Kitchen highly recommends is the Whole Red Snapper in curry or āCrioyoā sauce with aros moro. This is one of Kaminiās best sellers with their fishes being from open water.
